    Residential Satisfaction In Chennai: An Analysis of Choice of Location And Residential Satisfaction In State Sponsored Subsidised Housing
    (NATIONAL LAW SCHOOL OF INDIA UNIVERSITY, 2024-04-30) V, Malavika
    In Chennai, there has been a rapid increase in the number of informal settlements. Although in-situ housing and other government measures try to improve living conditions, the standard of living is still poor. The purpose of this study is to determine whether tenants' ongoing occupancy of state-sponsored public housing is a tactical decision influenced by the local economy. It also looks at how satisfied the residents are with their homes in these colonies. Preliminary findings from a mixed-methods approach indicate that economic variables have a major impact on inhabitants' decisions to stay. Residential satisfaction is still poor because of insufficient infrastructure and services, notwithstanding economic considerations. The research emphasises the necessity for efficient urban governance strategies, such as urban planning, infrastructure development, and community engagement programmes, to enhance living circumstances. In order to provide policy recommendations for improved well-being, this research provides insights into the nuanced interaction between economic decisions, residential satisfaction, and urban governance in public housing settlements.
